Estimation of Energy Expenditure

Walking Exercise *

In order to estimate energy expenditure, one should complete the following steps.

I. If you exercised outside, enter the duration of your exercise in minutes. Than, estimate the distance that you covered throughout the exercise session (in miles).
Exercise Duration (min)		Exercise Distance (miles)		Caloric Expenditure

II. If you exercised on a treadmill, enter average speed, elevation of the treadmill and the duration of the exercise session.
Speed		Grade		Exercise Duration (min)		Caloric Expenditure

* Most accurate for speeds of 1.9 - 3.7 mph

** Most accurate for speeds greater than 5 mph but appropriate for speeds as low as 3 mph if the individual is truly walking or running.
